4. Compact Car

This may not be the flashiest nor most powerful of cars, but what better way to spend a weekend than by driving a full-sized car around with a remote control? These geeks do just that and in an open field.

To create your own remote-controlled Hummer H3, you’ll need a specially made control system that features a compressed air system for the brakes, steering wheel / throttle controller, and gear changer.
